Gen 2 Camaro Control Arm choice

[The T-man]

I have a set of Speedtech uppers NIB
if you/ anyone wants them I'd sell

[gerno]

I'm interested. Are they the high clearance arms? Do you have any other parts? I'm looking to purchase the Speedtech parts today if I can get the parts list/pricing confirmed.

I'll be placing an order today to Kim at MCB for the Speedtech parts along with a 13" Wilwood brake kit. My buddy is purchasing all my old parts so I can better justify spending the money. I found this article that helped with my decision.

That is a good article. Rarely do you hear mentioned the differences in make/models over the years. This pic of the pitman arms is a great example. I believe the bent one to be a firebird part with poncho engines. I've seem guys use that arm to clear alternators in ls swaps w/o changing anything else, and I just shake my head.

^^^^^^ Like me in my "GTO" LS conversion, as seen on "NastyZ",

And THERE is the PROBLEM. Speedtech designed this as a "SYSTEM" kinda like say a subframe. (you probably would not call DSE and ask if you can relocate the steering rack, would you?) Everything in the kit has a purpose, if it didn't it wouldn't be in the kit. if the alternator placement is MORE important than the bumpsteer and ackerman, then fill your boots., it the suspension and steering is more important then maybe you should consider moving the alternator? Not ragging on Glassman just posing the question more than anything. Glad you liked the write up

Mine was only an issue since i did an 04 GTO LS converision and kept the accessories the same for now...as my front end is mostly stock.. And yes, i will be moving the alternator, when i do the a/c, but right now i'm in the "do i do coilovers/control arms/steering or front clip dilemma.....
